Greetings from Lake Cuyamaca: A much needed rain seems to have invigorated the trout with a refreshed appetite. ALPERS TROUT with the famous "BAD ATTITUDE"?? you expect from these Eastern Sierra??are taking inflated night crawlers. Anglers are catching limits of mixed sized trout. Bait produced more?? limits than hardware. Five Tagged trout good for a "Day on the Lake" gift certificate are waiting for you.

Prognosis:!! The bite should continue strong with bait. Inflated Night Crawlers with scent; Dough Baits with scent; and Salmon eggs. Trolling the North Shoreline and Dike with Roster Tails and Rapala's should provide some action. Drifting trout teasers with scent should be irresistible. Alpers trout are known for there fighting ability?? and wonderful taste. Enjoy this opportunity while it lasts. Waterfowl??hunters enjoyed a clear and cold morning with a beautiful sunrise. Managed to take (1) Redhead (1) Mallard
